I just wrote this long essay on what it takes to be a curator due to a situation in the gallery today. However, I deleted it, it wasn't his fault he was misinformed and that's because my job isn't spoken about a lot, since I'm the person behind the scene.
I was accused of just buying nice things for the gallery. It's not the case though, as an Art Curator I'm responsible for implementing and managing art exhibitions and collections to show the public, hopefully educate and also to showcase and offer sales for all artist.
Normally I assemble or select collections of works of art, or art projects, grouped around an idea or a theme. I try to keep pieces within the gallery changing every other month due to new art always being introduced.
I'm not here just to buy nice things. I am here to show the public nice things and maybe get them to buy them.
